Quorthon
(vo, gu), Kothaar (ba), Vvornth (dr) (1984) ·
That Bathory's first record appearance (on
the compilation Scandinavian Metal Attack) was a pure coincidence after
another band had dropped out. ·
That Quorthon's father was the owner of Black
Mark records, which may of course have aided in getting a record deal. ·
That Quorthon was in fact the sole memeber of
Bathory and played all the instruments himself. This was as least true
insomuch that he wrote all songs and replaced the other musicians very often.
·
That well-known video producer Jonas Åkerlund
(who has worked with {Metallica}, Madonna, The Cardigans, The Prodigy etc.)
once was the drummer in Bathory. This would pretty much rule out the rumour
above... ·
That Bathory had made a vow never to perform
live. ·
That Quorton was working on a full length
video that would feature the music of Bathory. ·
That Quorthon came up with his unique singing
style one day while rehersing, when the mike suddenly broke and he discovered
that singing through a guitar mike connected to a dist box didn't sound half
bad... |
